<p>Thesaurus passage? That was soooo easy.</p>
<p>Yeah, do you remember any of the questions?</p>
<p>Ok I remember one: what did the author mean about people who only assemble with their own kind?</p>
<p>That…was the one weird question in the thesaurus poem. I ruled it down to either something to the effect of “adherence to traditional meter and rhyme schemes” and “rigid poetic conventions” or something like that. Neither of them were what I thought the answer should be (something about using words together that typically go together) but the poem <em>definitely</em> had nothing to say about rhyme or meter, so I said “rigid poetic conventions” (That’s probably not how the answer was worded).</p>
<p>@ckoepp127 I put “rigid poetic conventions” (or however it was phrased) also.</p>
<p>Overall I thought the test wasn’t as bad as I expected</p>
<p>i took the test for the first time today! i thought it was all right… I’m not in any AP lit classes so I had to study by myself. why does it seem like the june SAT subject tests are all so hard? </p>
<p>Does anyone have any insight as to what the first few lines of the poem about the woman who dreads her meetings with her lover because she knows they will have to part represented? I think i put “friction” because of the fire and wood references but I was not sure at all on that one…</p>
<p>@ckoepp127 I put “rigid use of language” for that one - none of the others really made any sense…</p>
<p>@cofbrien I’m not entirely sure we’re talking about the same question, but I think I said a cycle between melancholy and apprehension, or something like that.</p>
<p>@ckoepp127 I put that answer as well.</p>
<p>Was that one answer iambic hexameter?</p>
<p>@BassGuitar I put iambic hexameter for one but it was almost a complete guess</p>
<p>@ckoepp127 and @cofbrien if I’m thinking of the right question I chose the answer with “melancholy” in it</p>
<p>With the meter question, was heroic couplet a choice? Now thinking back I think that would be right. I remember it was a choice somewhere in the test.</p>
<p>Two different questions. The heroic couplet was the answer to the question about the rhyme scheme the women’s satire poem used. The meter question was an except question, asking which style one of the poem’s DIDN’T use. I said free verse on that one.</p>
<p>Are you sure it was free verse and not blank verse?</p>
<p>I thought I put blank verse as well. Not sure though</p>
<p>Does anyone remember what they put for the one about what the first few lines of the poem mean in the context of the rest of the poem? It was something about the sun rising…</p>
<p>Don’t remember that question at all…</p>
<p>@krpoltax @ RoseOak3918</p>
<p>Oops. Yeah, it was blank verse, not free verse.</p>
